STYX (without Dennis DeYoung)

Just curious if anyone has seen STYX live following Dennis DeYoung's departure...does Tommy Shaw and co. perform any of his songs? I've always liked Styx but Tommy SHaw's Styx songs never did as much as Dennis' songs.

Come Sail Away and Don't LEt it End are my faves...
Let the rain come down...17 days....

I've never seen them live, but I do like their music...very theatrical and moody.

I just burned a copy of their greatest hits for my brother in law...he's a music
fan who likes Jimi, Beatles, Led Zepp, etc. I told him he NEEDS some STYX.

My favorite song is Suite Madame Blue...sheer excellence.

My favorite Tommy Shaw songs are Too Much Time On My Hands, followed
by Fooling Yourself.

Looks like DeYoung wrote most of their songs...they've got some nice ballads
Lady, The Best of Times, Come Sail Away, and Babe.

I really could have done without Mr. Roboto though...evillol
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.
